[sdiy] Potentiometer Source

[Tom Wiltshire]

Steve Carter posted to this list a few days ago with a load of cheap  
100K pots that he's put on eBay.co.uk.

Search for Item number 220379318602, 100 Brand New Alps  
Potentiometers 100K Lin.

These are the smaller Alps PCB mount pots, so might not be exactly  
what you're after. At this price though...
